You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.
― Richard Buckminster Fuller
We believe in living life well and making better choices. That means avoiding choices that lead to negative impacts that are harmful to ourselves and our environment. Instead we seek out sustainable methods for living and integrate them in our model for social change. Society is transforming and maturing, moving towards an era of more collaboration, connection and contribution. Together our aim is to perpetuate and expand a society based on on these values.
The Transition is not a revolution, it is an evolution. It brings some of the techniques and principles of Communalism into action while using the existing monetary system rules and influences it cannot readily escape. We are not fighting against the current system. We are adapting the current system so that it can transform into something better that would enable all of us to achieve a much higher standard of living within a relatively short period of time; a standard of living that would be continuously improved as we develop our technologies and the ways in which these discoveries are implemented. Rather than isolating ourselves completely from the mainstream, we promote The Transition as a viable alternative. The Transition is a communal organization striving for an egalitarian global society built on ephemeralization principles. Our intention is to bring together those who follow a compass set with the same values so we can reach our mutual goals faster. If you have land or are a community looking for dedicated people with a lot of passion we would love to talk with you!
